David Penny achieved the ambition of being a professional writer at the age of 24, with the acceptance of The Sunset People by Robert Hale, and was represented by the Leslie Flood Literary Agency.
Over the next five year three other books and several short stories followed, published both in the UK, US and Germany. Then near-starvation led him down the slippery slope of work, which distracted him from his true calling.
He has now returned to writing and is currently working on a ten part Historical Mystery series set in Moorish Spain at the end of the 15th Century, featuring English surgeon-detective Thomas Berrington and his sidekick, the eunuch Jorge. The first two books in the series, The Red Hill and Breaker of Bones, are currently available.
